remember that! Carl Thomas used to CRANK
what happened to music like that...why is it that every time i turn on the radio or the music video channel all i see is @ss and hear somebody singing about sexin you up or down...
how your skinny butt going to do anything? i mean really...
maybe its just me, but dag on can we get some soul, some funk, some spirit, songs about love...
oh that's right we got dudes like Slim thug and others talking about how black women can't love black men and need to lower our standards
CLEARLY I know plenty of sistahs who are MARRIED or in COMMITTED relationships with brothas and hold them down like there is no other
we don't have a problem treating a man like a king, holding him down, or none of that...however we arent going to let you lay on our couch and not contrbute...hell we would love to sit back and relax and let a man do what he can to take care of things...i am for one would have LOVED to not deal with interviewing window companies or worry about insulating the attic or my truck being washed or my yard being mowed and to have a partner...hell i'll cook, clean keep your draws clean all that...but i am black, i am high yella, but still black and i am not a size 2 or 6 and hair isn't all down my back...oh and i refuse to let you call me out my name oh and you at least gotta have goals, you could shuvle sh!t for a living as long as you are doing your best and love me and are faithful i am down...and you gotta believe in GOD but that's to much to ask...
BOY BYE get outta here
dudes like that get on my every lasting...but please believe there are more dudes like that out here than not...
and heres the reality with my career, my salary and me owning my own home its going to be even harder and not because i said so but because a dude will think i think i am all that...
again i'd personally like to relax and not have to think about this stuff all the day of my life have a partner in this life
I WOULD LOVE TO TRUST A MAN TO LEAD ME
but that's the issue...if you ain't got sense enough to lead yourself then how in the HELL can you expect me to let go and let you lead...
yes something the sistahs gotta work on but stop counting us completely out because we are driven and have had to be such...because we don't have the luxury of sitting around and waiting or laying on our backs to make it happen...
....oh yea this blog didn't even start off about this...
i am actually watching the Hip Hop Honors and how dope this joint is....
the music is hawt its dope how each area of the south has their own specific sound...
one day i hope that DC (DMV) will get out just due with our unique style and our deeply rooted ways of political think
anyways just found out i am getting my dog!!! wooohooooooo
guess what her name is: Golden

Tiff, you are on it girl. I agree with everythign you say and I might just have to blog about that issue as well. I have many male friends and I always like to get their input on us(Black Women) just to see where their heads are. Its a shame that men(like Slim Thug) run around here putting labels on the BW like they are a catch themselves. Just because he has money, he think he can come out of his mouth wrong-NOT. Dating for me has never really been an issue BUT, I do find men that see all of my accomplishments and immediately go into panoc mode. Ive even had a dude to ask me, "what do u need a man for, you have everything" I wanted to punch him dead in the mouth. Men(all races) have a problem with the BW because of the label thathas been put on us for years. All BW aren't loud, wrong, non-domestic...its just a cop out that men use when they 1)can't have the woman they want 2)want an excuse to date outside of their race 3)financially strapped 4)non-educated...the list can go on & on. The bottom line is...as BW, we're doing something right because there's always someone trying to make excuses about us(why we're not married, why we're so angry, etc...)and always havign something to say. Stay strong babe...your King will present himself in God's time and he will embrace everything about u.
idk what the deal is maybe the older i get the more secure those i will date will be and understand its not about the material...
i've always been strong i was raised that way it is what it is...then you add being hurt you just adapt you know...
like you said we're doing something right and when its my time it'll be my time...until then i am chillin just me...
